    How do you think you’re helping your endgame friend? Did MLK ask for anything more than what was possible at the time?

      You’re talking shit about people who have been fighting fascism on the streets for years if not decades and asking how they benefit the fight that you just joined once it started targeting people like you.

          How about harmony between people first?

          I honestly don’t know if you’re using this as an example of something you think is realistic, or more difficult than open borders.
